Title: Smokeys Wicks
Post by: crotch horn on June 29, 2015, 11:54:00 PM
Just wondering how many have his wick blend out & what kind of results you are having? I'm thinking of trying some on my property. Deer population is not very high in my area of northern NY coming off a really bad winter. Just looking for feedback & reasonable expectations for my area. Thanks guys.

Some of my friends have had great success.  I have not.  I hung several on my property in Iowa and refreshed the scent almost weekly.  Put up trail cameras to monitor activity.  Very little sign of anything using them.

I've used them for 2 years. The first year I had alot of hits at my wicks and alot of photos. Year 2, I used the leftover scent, and didn't have near as much action. This was the same property. We did have a deer die off between the two years. This year I will get fresh scent and put it out. I followed Uncle Gene's recommendations and it works.

I have used the preorbital up at my property with mixed results. We had so much rain that I don't think I could say one way or another if it helped.
